DESCRIPTION

15       The output returns the <physical  unit>:<TAB><decimal  code><TAB><hexa‐
16       decimal code><TAB><scaling><TAB><physical unit w/o prefix>, where <TAB>
17       represents the character ascii(9)

Examples:

21         Encoding of "microVolts", using text representation, decimal encoding
22       and hexadecimal encoding:
